Windows 8 and later have native support for TPM 2.0. Windows 7 can install an official patch to add TPM 2.0 support. [93] Windows Vista through Windows 10 have native support for TPM 1.2. The Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0) has been supported by the Linux kernel since version 4.0 (2015) [94] [95] [96] [97]
The static chain of trust starts when the platform powers on (or the platform is reset), which resets all PCRs to their default value. For server platforms, the first measurement is made by hardware (i.e., the processor) to measure a digitally signed module (called an Authenticated Code Module or ACM) provided by the chipset manufacturer. The ...
The Microsoft products Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows RT make use of a Trusted Platform Module to facilitate BitLocker Drive Encryption. [22] Other known applications with runtime encryption and the use of secure enclaves include the Signal messenger [23] and the e-prescription service ("E-Rezept") [24] by the German government.
Windows 7 is a major release of the Windows NT operating system developed by Microsoft. It was released to manufacturing on July 22, 2009, and became generally available on October 22, 2009. [10] It is the successor to Windows Vista, released nearly three years earlier. Windows 7's server counterpart, Windows Server 2008 R2, was released at the ...
Trusted Platform Module, a specification for a secure cryptoprocessor included with some computers; Tivoli Provisioning Manager, a software product by IBM; Trade promotion management, software that supports the management of trade promotion; Technical protection measures, another name for digital rights management
When used in conjunction with a compatible Trusted Platform Module (TPM), BitLocker can validate the integrity of boot and system files before decrypting a protected volume; an unsuccessful validation will prohibit access to a protected system. [6] [7] BitLocker was briefly called Secure Startup before Windows Vista's release to manufacturing. [6]
In current Trusted Computing specifications, there are two hardware components: the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), which will provide secure storage of cryptographic keys and a secure cryptographic co-processor, and a curtained memory feature in the CPU. In NGSCB, there are two software components, the Nexus, a security kernel that is part of ...
A valid proof cannot be computed in simulated hardware (i.e. QEMU) because in order to construct it, access to the keys baked into hardware is required; only trusted firmware has access to these keys and/or the keys derived from them or obtained using them. Because only the platform owner is meant to have access to the data recorded in the ...
